🎭✨ Mid-Summer Magic: Celebrating Theatre in Wexford ✨🎭

This summer, five of Wexford's most successful drama groups come together for one special night at Gorey Little Theatre.

Following an incredible year that saw Ballycogley Players, Bridge Drama, Bunclody-Kilmyshall Drama Group, Wexford Drama Group, and ourselves at Gorey Little Theatre all reach the All-Ireland Drama Finals, we're joining forces to celebrate the talent, passion, and creativity that makes Wexford theatre so special.

Expect an evening of entertainment, storytelling, laughter, and a showcase of the remarkable work being created across the county.

Throughout this year's festival season, all groups have been overwhelmed by the support we've received from audiences across Wexford and beyond. Mid-Summer Magic is our chance to celebrate an extraordinary year for theatre in the county, while also giving something back to the community that has supported us every step of the way.

All proceeds from the evening will go to Pieta House, helping to support the vital work they do for people and families across Ireland.

🎟️ With five All-Ireland finalist groups sharing one stage, tickets are expected to sell quickly. Book yours early and join us for what promises to be a wonderful celebration of Wexford theatre, community, and giving back.

📍 Gorey Little Theatre
📅 Friday, July 10th
🕢 7.30pm
🎟️ €18 (+ booking fee) https://www.gr8events.ie/sales/index.php?event=2769

Come celebrate an unforgettable year for Wexford theatre while helping us give something back to the wider community.
